Well I have my fist vehicle with ABS, 2003 montana, is there anything special I need to do to change the pads? Thanks

No, it's generally the same.

Ok thanks for the reply, I thought maybe with the Antilocks I had to do something different when pushing the pistons back in.

On all my vehicles, I open the bleeder valve when I compress the caliper piston. This starts the process of changing out the brake fluid and prevents a "back flush" through the anti-loc system. I have a canister with a clear tube and rubber fitting that fits on the bleeder valve.

I also remove all the fluid from the resevoir and refill with fresh fluid prior to bleeding. After pad and/or caliper replcaement, I then bleed the calipers until clean fluid comes out.

For filling the resevoir, I use a really big syringe with a clear hose on it to pull in the new fluid and plunge into the resevoir. It's tough to get to the resevoir on these vans.
